Swanson Road on Craig's and Dave's new map! With Addie, Glen, Florence and Lido! The map is great! The new area has some technical difficulty, but the forest is very nice for the most part.

We were all slow, and made even more so by the dog. We were out for more than 2.5 hours. Tired of slogging but in the end only covered 3.6 miles

Back to the chest strap, the usual artificial HR bump at the start.

I ran this one a little faster, but it wasn't all that fast. I ran for decades without any heart rate information, and now that I have it it's driving me crazy. This was using the wrist sensor, and it shows an average in the 140s. I don't believe it.

Road running 48:05 intensity: (28 @1) + (49 @2) + (45:48 @3) + (1:00 @4) 5.17 mi (9:18 / mi) +100m 8:46 / mi
ahr:111 max:144 shoes: Ravenna 11

Easy loop down to Sligo Creek and back. I used the wrist monitor this time. No obvious problems, but there is a strange spike just before crossing the creek. It's dead flat there, and if I was spooked by a bear, you'd think I'd remember it.

With Garmin, when you wear the chest strap, you get a bunch more metrics, such as vertical oscillation, ground contact time, right-left balance. I think it's just an incentive to use the chest strap, but maybe there's an extra accelerometer or something in there.

Road running 36:09 intensity: (16 @2) + (27:31 @3) + (8:18 @4) + (4 @5) 3.99 mi (9:04 / mi) +72m 8:35 / mi
ahr:117 max:155 shoes: Ravenna 11

Easy run. When my HR read 140, I did a quick manual check: 100. It ran up to over 150: still 100 IRL. This nonsense took up the first third of my run. I believe the feedback and advice that Garmin gives you is good, but not if the inputs to its algorithms are bogus. GIGO.

Little Bennet training, Long-1. 7.5k advertised length. I took the dog, and let him off the leash when we entered the forest. He's better at staying around now, but he can still disappear in an instant. It's not good for him or me. He can hear me calling, but when he finds his way back he's obviously stressed. So I put him back on leash between 3 and 4. (You can see where I backtracked some while I was calling for him. It would be interesting to put the gps on him instead.) We went that way for the rest of the course. It's clearly slower that way.
